Like his father before him, those in the next generation(s) were the light of his life: his son, his daughter, his nieces and nephews all brought smiles to his face. Nothing made him happier than being with family celebrating Holidays, Christenings, First Communions, Birthdays, Graduations, Weddings, and Anniversaries or just watching with the pure joy the innocence of a three year old great niece sliding down his automatic recliner. May God bless his strong, brave, and loving soul. He faced a challenging illness with amazing courage and grace. May he be at peace at last in God's home.
